Thumbnail image for dulles_hangar_11.jpgA friend sent these pictures along of the unfortunate fate of a handful of very expensivve business jets kept inside what the owners, and Dulles Jet Centre itself, most likely thought was a safe cocoon.

I covered the grand opening, complete with hoopla, of the $60 million facility back in November 2006.

 

 

When three feet of Washington DC snow came to roost on the roof after a 5 February 2010 snowstorm, however, "safe" turned out to be a relative term.

See for yourself.
